We took the 3.5 hour Sunset Tour. Toney, our Navajo guide, took great care of us. He is SO knowledgeable. He shared names and stories about each of the monuments, answered all of our questions and gave us great photo tips along the way. At one point, Toney realized that a bad storm was coming (a summer monsoon). He calmly guided us to an alcove in a rock wall, where we could watch the storm (and the waterfalls that suddenly appeared), but stay safe and dry until the rain stopped. As we left the park, we were greeted by a clear, bright double rainbow. It was magical.See more..
We took two excellent photo tours with Dineh Bekeyah while in Monument Valley. Both were with Harry Nez who is very personable and had wonderful stories of growing up in the valley and shared his knowledge of the Dine people, culture and language. Harry is also a wonderful photographer and had great suggestions about both composition and technical aspects of photography. The first day was a morning tour through the valley to many wonderful locations. The second day was the highlight of our trip with a late afternoon/evening/sunset trip up to Hunt's Mesa. It was quite a 4-wheel drive adventure getting to the top of the mesa and the views were spectacular. It was an amazing vantage point to over look the entire valley. We highly recommend Dine Bekeyah Tours and especially Harry Nez.See more..
5.0North Forty Escapes(347 reviews) - Dog Sledding and Snow Mobiling Nature & Wildlife Tours
Great ranch with fun activities. The owner Jordan was very nice and helpful while making reservations. Loved the dog sledding. Would recommend doing the first run of the day when the dogs are fresh and excited. The guides/mushers were great. The snow mobiling was amazing too! Lots of fun. They are very organized. Highly recommend using them.See more..
We hired them to shuttle my friend and me to a Trailhead for a planned multi-day hike in BRCA. The level of service was phenomonal at every step, from initial call for info, to booking and payment, and even accommodating a change of itinerary. Our driver Tim and his companion were fun company on the ride to the Trailhead and went above and beyond his obligation to help us out of a jam. Amazing people providing amazing service!! Book these folks for you tour or shuttle needs!See more..
We were referred by our hotel to Sleeping Rainbow Adventures for a jeep tour and we were not disappointed! Erin was our guide and she was very knowledgeable, despite her short time in the area. This points directly at the owners and their vast knowledge and ensuring their guides are just as informed. We recommend the 5-7 hour tour if you are seeing Capitol Reef as there is plenty of time to get out, walk around the sites and take lots of pictures! We thought 5+ hours would be a long ride, but in fact it went by so fast. There is so much to see and Erin was so open to conversation and willing to point out the various structures and history that you just don't watch the clock.See more..
Jim took our family of five (including 8, 6, and 5 year old children) on a slot canyon tour outside of Escalante. He catered the tour to our children's abilities while still challenging them. He taught us all basic climbing maneuvers that assisted in moving through the tight canyons. He was friendly and fun. Of a 16 day road trip, this tour was the highlight of our vacation. I highly recommend booking with Utah Canyon Outdoors if you want to get off the beaten path and enjoy the majesty of slot canyons in solitude.See more..
We went out for a special event. There was a band playing on a pontoon, and we got kayaks from Dig Paddlesports and paddled out to the pontoon to hear the band, which was very talented and diverse. I swear, it's the coolest thing I've done in years. We are all very inexperienced! We got a tandem kayak and two singles. My 11 year old is a natural and was laughing and loved having his own water craft. My 77 year old mother was able to paddle down and back with no issues in the tandem. The staff were AMAZING, polite, and helpful. We all had life vests, included with each rental. Will definitely go again.See more..
Jason is exceptional! He was a wealth of knowledge. Full of information about different geological ages, the varied native cultures and traditions. He shared a lot of information about the wildlife, the weather systems, the seasonal patterns, and flash flooding. Traveling through the slot canyons is an experience I will always remember! I highly recommend this incredibly unique and memorable adventure!See more..
Thanks for 2 awesome trips. Shawn met us early so we could photograph the Temple of the Sun at sunrise and then we continued on for an extended tour of Cathedral Valley. He has great knowledge of the history, geology and best photo spots on the tour. Shawn was patient with my photo exercise and very easy to get along with. He has great communication/personal skills and answered all our questions with enthusiasm. With 25+ years in the area, he is well informed about all aspects of adventure in the area. We liked the Cathedral Valley tour so much, we did a UTV tour up Sulphur Basin with Shawn. Both tours had spectacular landscape scenery and Shawn delivered the best of it to us in style. I would recommend him as the goto person for any type of tour in the Torrey area. Hopefully, we will have time to do some fishing next time!. A+++++++ Thanks again for all. Tom & RanyaSee more..
5.0Jennifer Rogers(27 reviews) - The best possible wild horse photography tour! Multi-day Tours • Private Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Photography Tours • Day Trips
I am a native who has been out to photograph the herd many times, but nothing compares with a tour with Jen! I now realize that I often didn’t know what I was seeing, and that it takes someone with Jen’s incredible knowledge of the herd and wild horse behavior to truly understand and appreciate what is happening and what you are seeing. Her knowledge of the individual horses, their families and behavior is amazing. Add to that she is a wonderful resource for photographers with lots of suggestions, pointers, and careful positioning to help you take your best images possible.See more..
5.0Ancient Wayves River And Hiking Adventures(26 reviews) - Book a Tour! You'll Be Glad You Did. Sunday: 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM Multi-day Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Photography Tours • Day Trips
Our guided tour with Louis Williams was by far the highlight of our trip to southeastern Utah. We visited cliff dwellings in the Bears Ears National Monument, and all along the way, Louis shared his fascinating stories of the ancient Indigenous way of life, the geology of the region, its plants and animals. When we booked the tour, our intention was simply to learn about what we were seeing. Louis provided us with so much more! He opened our eyes to the Diné (Navajo) culture, and has inspired us to learn more about the land and its Indigenous People. It was a privilege to be guided by him. If you're in southeastern Utah, don't miss the chance to book a tour with Louis!See more..
5.0Stargazing Zion(26 reviews) - Visiting the night sky Sunday: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Nature & Wildlife Tours
Once again it's happening in Southern Utah. A new event for everyone. Stargazing Zion brings something new and innovative for all ages. See the stars at night through the eyes of telescopes of several different sizes and get an educational tour at the same time from a professional (Matthias) who brings the tedious education of astronomy down to a level everyone can appreciate and understand. Where else to view the planets and stars than Southern Utah. The setting and accommodations are choice to relax and enjoy the experience with your own pair of binoculars and then use the telescopes provided. Don't miss it. And don't forget, when the sun comes up, it's time to tube down the Virgin river at Ziontubing, open 7 days per week. They have you covered, daytime or night with entertainment. The day doesn't end, just because the sun goes down in Southern Utah.See more..
My husband and I greatly enjoyed our hike with Jeff. He took us slick rock hiking in a location that we could never have accessed with our rental SUV. The hike was just the right length with the right level of challenge. We visited a secluded slot canyon and took a break in a very special small cave. That was all amazing as was the weather. What put the hike over the top was Jeff. He really listened to our description of the type of hike that we wanted to do. He's also a great guy. Wonderful to talk to with a great sense of perspective. If we are ever in the area, we will definitely try to arrange another hike with Jeff.See more..
5.0ARTA River Trips(9 reviews) - ARTA guides are skilled and fun! Sunday: 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Boat Tours • Water Sports • Nature & Wildlife Tours
Our family of four LOVED our trip down the Green River through the Gates of Lodore! It was a magical time filled with fun side hikes and incredible food prepared by our guides. As a non-water person, I was a bit nervous about the rapids and “unintentional swimming.” But, the ARTA guides are all very skilled at what they do. And, because they love it...they’re really good at it! I can’t say enough about this company (they support organizations that preserve our river systems).See more..
